Abstract

Objective:To analyze the secondary pulmonary infection and the distribution of pathogenic bacteria in children with tracheobronchial foreign body, and to guide the clinical treatment. Method:The clinical data of 197 children with tracheobronchial foreign bodies confirmed by rigid bronchoscopy were reviewed. According to the clinical manifestations and signs, blood routine, chest CT and airway endocrine pathogen distribution, the secondary pulmonary infection was analyzed. Result:Seventy-five of 197 children with foreign bodies in tracheobronchial had secondary pulmonary infections. Among them, 32 cases of airway endocrine cultured pathogenic bacteria, mainly including Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae. Children with long preoperative history, fever, and with a history of using antibiotics are more likely to have secondary pulmonary infections. Conclusion:The duration of disease history, preoperative fever and the use of antibiotics are related to secondary pulmonary infection. The third generation of cephalosporins can effectively control the infection.
